Interesting. I never knew that the definition of LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) precluded pixel-by-pixel addressability. The thousands of manufacturers who call them simply "LCD" must all be wrong.

It's probably just nomenclature used in the embedded dev systems market to differentiate LCDs strapped to a character generator and controlled via a simple serial interface from the ones that are directly addressable.
